Nick Boyd Shines in Golden State Debut

From Wisconsin to the NBA

Nick Boyd spent a single season with the Wisconsin Badgers before entering the pro ranks. The 25‑year‑old guard went undrafted but earned an immediate contract with the Golden State Warriors. Securing a spot on a Pacific‑division roster is a rapid rebound after a one‑year college career.

Impressive Second‑Game Double‑Double

Boyd’s NBA debut was a struggling 2‑for‑10 shooting effort, leaving him at a –9 in plus/minus after just 24 hours on the court. He turned the page on July 5, delivering a double‑double in his second professional game. On the Warriors’ Blue squad, Boyd logged a team‑high 27 minutes, tallied 11 points, and provided 10 assists.

His shooting improved to 4‑for‑7 from the floor, while he missed both three‑point attempts. He collected six rebounds, recorded three turnovers, and grabbed one steal, despite finishing the night at –1. Even with the strong return, the Blue team fell to 0‑2 in the series.

A double‑double in only the second NBA game is a rare feat, highlighting Boyd’s quick adaptation to the professional level. The Warriors will watch his development closely as a potential roster contributor. If the momentum continues, Boyd could become a key piece for Golden State’s future lineup.
